I love that instructing Pilates can fit around my family and allow me to work without taking too much time away from my kids! Some days I just teach a few classes at lunch time, while other days I teach a longer morning shift. Either way, it means that I&#8217;m still able to pick the kids up from school and take them to their afternoon activities.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Instructing is a great job for balancing family life because you don&#8217;t have to do more work when you get home. When you&#8217;re at work, you&#8217;re focused on instructing, but I don&#8217;t need to take work home with me. So when I&#8217;m at home, I can just enjoy my kids and family time!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:26px\"><strong>05:00AM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At 5.00am, I&#8217;m at the studio and welcoming clients into the class. I instruct 6 Pilates classes back to back and each class is 40 minutes in duration. I instruct 3 classes, then have a 15 min break, instruct another 2 then have a 30 min break, then instruct 1 final class! On average I have about 10-18 clients per class and the classes are Reformer based.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I have a wide range of clients in the classes. I find that a lot of the business professionals come early in the morning and many of my older, retired clients later in the morning. It&#8217;s always something different in each class which keeps things interesting!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:26px\"><strong>10:15AM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By 10.15am, I finish instructing for the day and tidy up the studio.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-black-color has-text-color wp-block-paragraph\" style=\"font-size:26px\"><strong>10:40PM<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:16px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">By 10.40am, I&#8217;ve left the studio and start to do errands like grocery shopping. I&#8217;ll also catch up with friends for coffee and perform odd jobs around the house like laundry, cleaning and gardening. I&#8217;ll also often go back to the studio to attend the lunchtime class myself, so I can get my own workout in while the kids are still at school!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studiopilates.com\/education\/courses-available\/\">BROWSE COURSES<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-text-align-center has-large-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.studiopilates.com\/education\/book-a-course\/\">UPCOMING COURSE DATES<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As a full time mum, I instruct a few days a week at a Studio Pilates boutique studio.
